Let me start off by saying..."This is the most badass song ever written and the Winter
are genius'." The fills are almost all keyboard (I prefer to play them on guitar). Most
the guitar in the background are just improvised use of the C and Bb power chords (like 
the main riff) so I didn't tab them out. There is one part of the horn section I haven't
yet and I'm not tabbing the keyboard solos (for now at least). Anyways, enjoy!

Keys
h - hammer-on
p - pull-off
b - bend
r - release
~ - vibrato
/ - slide down
\ - slide up
 - strike note (#) while in bend
